Bethesda Fallout Day 2025: everything announced, from Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition to New Vegas’s 15th bundle

Bethesda’s annual Fallout Day broadcast on October 23 delivered a compact slate of reveals across games old and new. The headline was a tenth-anniversary celebration for Fallout 4—but the showcase also teed up current-gen releases, community content, and a nod toward what’s next. Here’s the full breakdown of what Fallout fans can expect over the coming weeks and into 2026.

Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition lands Nov. 10

The broadcast confirmed Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition for November 10, 2025, bundling the base game, all six expansions (Far Harbor, Nuka-World, Automatron, Wasteland Workshop, Contraptions Workshop, Vault-Tec Workshop), and 150+ pieces of curated Creation Club content. A new in-game Creations hub streamlines browsing, installing, and updating mods on both console and PC, lowering the barrier to building a personalized Commonwealth without wrestling load orders.

The package arrives roughly a month before the franchise’s TV return in December, positioning both newcomers and returning players to dive in with modern performance modes and faster loads on current consoles.

Switch 2 version and platform roadmap

A Nintendo Switch 2 edition of Fallout 4 is planned for 2026, extending the re-release to Nintendo’s next hardware. The team also outlined a staggered platform plan for other Fallout projects (see table below), signaling that more native current-gen SKUs are on the way next year.

Fallout 76 and live game updates

The live service side wasn’t left out. The broadcast highlighted native versions of Fallout 76 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S targeted for 2026, alongside the next wave of content beats and quality-of-life upgrades. Expect cadence details as development milestones firm up; the message was clear that long-tail support continues, with technical groundwork to match.

Fallout Shelter refresh

Fallout Shelter picks up new limited-time events and rewards tied to the anniversary window. While the game’s core loop remains intact, the additions give lapsed Overseers a reason to re-open the vault and chase a few fresh objectives.

New Vegas turns 15: special bundle

As part of the franchise retrospectives, the showcase unveiled a 15th anniversary bundle for Fallout: New Vegas. It’s a celebration set—think cosmetic and collectible-leaning extras—that complements, rather than replaces, existing versions of the game. The bundle underscores how central New Vegas remains to the Fallout identity even as newer titles take the spotlight.

“More Fallout is coming” — but patience required

The broadcast closed with a brief tease that additional Fallout projects are in development. No logos, dates, or formats—just an assurance that the pipeline is active and that details will follow when ready. Fans hoping for surprise remakes or a numbered sequel will need to keep expectations measured until concrete announcements arrive.

All timing is subject to change as development progresses.

Why Fallout Day 2025 matters

This year’s Fallout Day didn’t hinge on a single megaton announcement; instead, it stitched together accessibility, longevity, and convenience:

• Accessibility: Bringing Fallout 4 to more places (and making modding easier) keeps the franchise welcoming to new players.

• Longevity: Current-gen work on Fallout 76 and evergreen Fallout Shelter content signals continued investment beyond quick anniversary fan service.

• Convenience: The Creations hub aims to normalize modding on console—an important quality-of-life step that could meaningfully expand the creator ecosystem.

What to watch next

• Nov. 10 rollout: Stability patches and hotfixes often follow major bundles—keep an eye on in-game notices.

• Creator playlists: Expect curated “builds” that group Creations into themed collections (survival, settlement, photo mode).

• 2026 port details: As platform-specific features are confirmed, watch for performance targets and save-compatibility notes.

• Future-project clues: Trademark activity, hiring patterns, and engine notes may hint at the scale and shape of whatever’s next.

Fallout Day 2025 favored practical wins—content in hand, clearer timelines, and a smoother path to personalization. With Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition locked for November 10, fans won’t wait long to celebrate a decade in the Commonwealth—this time with fewer hoops between a fresh install and the wasteland you actually want to play.
